Your Tailoring Academy
Today the Thousand Days Of Hope And Glory project was updated with a black cotton jersey t-shirt, with a slender shape. Which now raises our counting to a total of 4 items.
A t-shirt…? How advanced is that? Well, actually just as advanced as you want it to be!
First day of the project! My mathematical experiment – Thousand Days Of Hope And Glory. Yes!
Finished these three designs just in time for today. My first combination! And at the same time the very first items from our three categories A – A top, B – Bottom and C – Cover!
Getting ready for Thousand Days Of Hope And Glory! And I’m in a hurry!! The project is planned to start tomorrow and I already need 3 garments for first day’s look! No time to waste. (Becase as of today, I have non.)
The idea is actually quite simple.
Let’s take that one more time! 30 garments, divided into three groups. Combine them with each other and that will give you a whole new outfit, every day, for 1.000 days. 10 x 10 x 10 = 1.000. Rather obvious one could say – but still kind of amazing! That’s almost three years!
10 cubed. Or cube root of 1.000. Thousand Days Of Hope And Glory. A project. How many items of clothing would I need for that? (And what is Bespoke Era anyway?)
Math can be so complicated! Especially when tried to be put right into practical use. I know that. So when our Bespoke Era project was started – a project where we look into if a person could wear bespoke tailored garments only, for a certain amount of time, and if possibly, having all the clothes made by one person only, like in the “good ol’ days” – I quickly began to plan and calculate how much clothing and time that was needed, to enable our test-person to be dressed in life’s many situations. A lot, it showed. Of course. But not as much as one would think. Still I wasen’t quite sure of my calculations.
